Numenera: Discovery Cover (Monte Cook Games)This morning, Monte Cook Games launched their Kickstarter for Numenera 2: Discovery and Destiny and the project blew past it’s initial $80k funding goal in just a few hours. Cook previously discussed the two new core books in our Gen Con interview and indicated we’ll be seeing the next step in the evolution of the Numenera RPG. At its heart, the crowdfunding project is mainly focused on a pair of new books. Numenera: Discovery is a revamped core rule book which, thankfully, will not make previous supplements and adventures obsolete. In addition, Numenera: Destiny will focus on character and setting to allow players to face new challenges as they aim to make their mark upon the Ninth World.

The Kickstarter has achieved over 150% of its goal (as of this writing) and gamers can get their hands on the PDFs of the two core books, an exclusive adventure The Trilling Shard, a beginner’s guide Discover Your Destiny, as well as all unlocked stretch goals at the $120.00 pledge level. The project runs through October 27th with a planned delivery date of June 2018.

From Monte Cook Games:

Set a billion years in our future, Numenera is a tabletop roleplaying game about exploration and discovery. The people of the Ninth World suffer through a dark age, an era of isolation and struggle in the shadow of the ancient wonders crafted by advanced civilizations now millennia gone. But discovery awaits for those brave enough to seek out the works of the prior worlds. Those who uncover and master the numenera can unlock the powers and abilities of the ancients, and bring new light to a struggling world.

The original Numenera RPG was launched via a 2012 Kickstarter campaign that shattered every record (at the time) for tabletop RPGs. The corebook has seen four printings, and Numenera is enjoyed by tens of thousands of gamers in an active global community. We have published over 60 supplements and accessories, and released a terrific starter set for new players. The Ninth World has spawned a critically-acclaimed hit computer game, board games, an excellent short film, a line of novels, and other licensed items, and Numenera has been translated into many languages including French, Spanish, Italian, Korean, German, and Portuguese.

Numenera is a game in which player characters explore the ruins of aeons past to gather amazing treasures and help build a new future for a world struggling in darkness. Since the launch of Numenera in 2013, we have delivered well on the first part, but we’ve always wanted to do a more thorough job exploring that second part. That desire has led us to Numenera 2 and this Kickstarter campaign.

Through this Kickstarter we’re going to replace the existing corebook with two new corebooks. The first is called Numenera Discovery and the second Numenera Destiny.
